Hey BTC Forum, my name is Wes. New to the fourm, this is my first post, but i've spent almost 2 years following BTC, and its been about 1 year since I bought my first coin. Now its time to up my participation again and start getting involved with this forum instead of lurking about.

have lurked for nearly a year. Work in Tech and know a lot about bitcoin looking to get in touch with more Uk members to buy btc as our options keep getting limited. Hopefully will be able to contribute to the community too

I've been following bitcoin for about a year and a half now, and I'm happy to see all the attention it's been getting lately. I've been stuck for months on a problem related to my poor choice to encrypt a wallet that I believe was created from a 0.4.x client using a more recent version. Attempting to send the coin that's in the wallet results in the error, "Transaction creation failed." The bitcoin that is stuck in this wallet is now worth a non-trivial amount, so I intend on getting some posting done here and seeing if anyone can help in the tech support forum.

Hansen my name, Im interested in everything about bitcoins. Had a bunch a while ago, when they were around 10 dollars, saw them dropping to three and wasnt so mad when my wallet got lost because of a windows crash. No I AM mad, because the wallet now would be worth a couple hundred dollar. Shit happens. :-)

You want less fees? - You want a stable currency? - You want a fair distribution of raised funds? - You want anonymous transactions and communication? - You want so much more that doesn't fit in this line and will look crappy when writing it down because it will just be so much? - JOIN RADIX!Co- Founder of Radix http://www.radix.global

You can call me Filet Mignon. I happened to stumble upon this site a few days ago, and I can't wait until I have my newb restrictions off! This forum seems like a great place, and I look forward to talking to everyone here.

I took the Unlock() method of wallet.cpp and built a branch of bitcoin which allows for rapid password entry against this algorithm. I'm not a cryptography expert, so I didn't tinker with the algorithm although it's possible to make the check even faster, since we don't actually need to unlock the wallet. If anyone's interested, I can't post a link right now because I'm a forum newb but I'm trying to get past that stage
